flour if preferred. While beating
the eggs have the pan heating.
At the same time a tablespoon of
butter placed in it will melt.
When the latter is sizzling, pour
in the omelet and let set. When
cooked sufficiently to fold over,
place on one-half of it a cup of
apple sauce or finely chopped ap
ple. Fold over and serve.
Another recipe for the omelet

then mash, 8 large apples. Put
through a colander." Add 1 cup of
sugar and 1 tablespoon butter.
Let cool; whip in 4 eggs beaten
separately. Place in baking dish.
Put into rather quick oven and
bake till brown.
